Urban Bush Babes with the beautiful, gracious and poised host of Belle Butters event Fran of Hey Fran Hey http://heyfranhey.com (an amazing site to find inspiration on natural hair, fashion and advice on hair and nutrition as well).

Nikisha and I with the beautiful and hilarious Franchesca of Chescalocs http://www.youtube.com/user/chescalocs Love her videos if you have not seen her channel definitely check it out. Whether you have dreadlocs or not she has some pretty amazing hairstyle tutorials.

Here with beauties Franchesca of Chescalocs and Fran of Hey Fran Hey. Ya’ll know the topic of hair can get reaaaaaaaal serious sometimes.

You might be wondering why I am not flashing the pearlies, well since I was wearing red lipstick it always somehow seemed to come off on my teeth from time to time even with the lipstick finger trick so not to risqué red teeth in any of the pictures I decided to smile with lips only. Ahhhh the sacrifices I will make for fashion, lol.

Yani, Nikisha and Nikisha’s beautiful little boy Jaden who was psyched about the free icecream! To tell you the truth so was I, lol.

Nikisha and Fran laughing away as Jaden makes a funny face.

Now I knew I was in trouble and it was going to be a good night all at the same time when I saw my favorite cupcakes by Crumbs http://www.crumbs.com/ Lets’ just say I got a too go box and took three home, lol. I wasn’t alone Nikisha holla!!!

Flyness everywhere: Poet/Playwright/Dancer/Actress, Yvonne Fly Onakeme Etaghene http://myloveisaverb.com and to the right Founding Artistic Director Pia Monique of Pia Murray Dance Collective and natural hair blog “The Kitchen Salon” http://thekitchensalon.blogspot.com her site is a must see, we will be featuring some of Pia’s articles very soon.

It’s so funny that so many of the ppl who are showing teeth had something stuck in them. Eating candy and taking pics is not the business. Looks like a load of fun and nice turn out.

Cipriana

Starla you must have super vision, lol. I can’t see anything but if they did least they looked good doing it Yes it was a great turnout, a lot of love

I so wish I was there. Unfortunately I saw the invite late and I’m all the way in Jamaica. On the upside though, looking at the pics made me feel like I was there. I saw a lot of lovely women, I ate cupcakes, ice cream… lol.

Cipriana

Lol, yaaaaay, mission accomplished :) I am so happy you felt that you were there. Hopefully next time :DDD
